Based on the IP, the operator of a web portal can choose where the commercial promotion placement will be most effective on your website. While the visits represent the number of visitors, the IP provides information on the subpages of the web portal that are they sue more frequently. Webmasters can then differentiate between interesting and uninteresting pages on their web portal. This is relevant information for effective SEO and business promotion.
